1p nb: i laughed at the idea of ed intimidating me. it seemed ridieulous now. he was the reason i hadn't asked in the first place. 2p nb: he always seemed grumpy and serious, and had never even given me a passing glance when we had seen each other in the library before i teamed up with him and al. 3p nb: he wasn't keen on the idea of me, joining them probably thinking i'd just get in the way. nb2: but he finally gave in, most likely thanks to mustang, and for the last four months i been traveling with the famous fullmetal alchemist and his brother alphonse. 4p nb: despite his aloofness and fierce independence, i found that ed was actually a very likable person. 5p nb: i had alwasy thought he was extremely good looking as well, but of course i kept that to myself. ^///^
